Professional Experience
A former magazine editor at Time Inc. and Ziff Davis, I write frequently for This Old House, Interior Design, Preservation, and other national magazines. I also write about science, health, and medicine on my blog, Secret Science Geek, and am working on a narrative nonfiction book about an ancient disease.
